A.C. LEWIS MEMORIAL LIBRARY Library Takes On New Appearance The official opening of a new $2.7 million wing headlined events at the A.C. Lewis Memorial Library during 1985-86. In addition to completion of the 2,600 sq. ft. facility, the re- source center also acquired over 5,000 new books, installed a sophisticated magazine index system and initiated LEXIS (Library Express Information Service). The new addition consists of a basement and first and second floors. Between five to six thousand books were added to the li- brary’s already extensive collection last year. Also, the facility subscribes to 1,238 periodicals with over 60 new magazines having been added in the past two years. One of the most recent acquisitions is the library’s magazine index, which provides cover-to-cover indexing of more than 400 periodicals. It’s located in the reference room. Another state-of-the-art ‘‘newcomer” is LEXIS, an on-line re- trieval service which offers a wide range of bibliographic and statistical data bases. Five copiers are now available in the library since three Xe- rox 1045 Marathon copiers were added to the center’s inven- tory last fall. Personnel at A.C. Lewis realize special attention should be afforded students during certain times of the semester. This is especially true during final examinations, so library hours were extended during fall and spring finals from 10 to 12 p.m. The facility also opened its doors during the Mardi Gras holidays. Workshops are often conducted. During 1985-86 workshops involved the library staff and faculty, microcomputer software evaluation, acquisition and MRDF format cataloging, retrospective conversion, tape processing and inservice training for paraprofessionals support staff and student assistants. Special occasions such as Afro-American History Month and National Library Week were also observed. A series of mini-clinics on documents, special references, microprint area resources, card catalogues and indexes and special references were also held. The library is also proud of its extensive microfiche and mi- crofilm collections. This past year two new reader-printers were acquired for this area. : New copiers were installed. Microfiche files are available. Over 5,000 new books were received last year. Cofeges 63
